Been far too distracted by video games the past couple weeks, need to get back to revisions. It has been fun fleshing out the world to be a bit more fantastical on this draft, going to chase that feeling #amwriting #fantasy #writingcommunity

Revisions have been going slow but I'm hoping to make some good progress today. I've been rewriting the opening and I'm hoping once I get past it

Been letting the first draft simmer and doing worldbuilding plus outlining a tightened up version of the plot. Feeling pretty good. Planning to start revisions on Monday and get back into the swing of things #amwriting #writingcommunity #amwritingfantasy

It’s work in progress Wednesday! And while my WIP is only 45K words right now, far from being ready for beta readers, and with no release date, I do have one thing going for me… …I got me a cover. Yeah, you gotta wait awhile, but it's worth the wait.

Late last year I had a crisis of conscience, of confidence, of belief in what I was doing with my life. And I realized I had to get back to writing, I had to make this dream I've had since I was a child come true. 76 days, 92.5k words later and the first draft of Hedge Mage for Hire is finished.

On the off chance anyone who follows me for writing is also a hockey fan, I have a youtube channel where I post videos of myself playing hockey once or twice a week www.youtube.com/@captainsalt...

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

It isn’t about security or data protection. It just isn’t. Never forget that most people are on TikTok to see NEWS. Foreign sources of world events that they can’t control. So, they found a way to control it.

Smashed 81k words written without even realizing. We're smack in the middle of the thrilling conclusion! Just a few chapters to go to finish this first draft of my cozy fantasy. On pace for my goal of 90 days or less to write it.

I see we are continuing that good old detroit sports tradition of our players getting injured on illegal plays with no consequence.

I'm going yo be honest this makes it worse. Why does it sit like that? Why do it's pecs look like a butt? Why is it judging my sins with its eyes?

My current WIP would not be possible if @rebeccathorne.bsky.social 's Tomes and Tea hadn't made me realize that the "cozy" part of cozy fantasy does not mean your MCs cannot spend a chapter or three kicking ass.

Definitely not fully happy with how the chunk I wrote today turned out, but that's these drafts are for.

Checking out Wayfaring Booksellers at REO was one of the highlights of my wife and I's last trip to Lansing. Any fellow Michigan friends in the area should check it out!

Reflecting on how I finally managed to dive back into writing again by not trying to write a perfectly crafted epic fantasy but just writing a story about someone chasing their dreams and discovering found family and first love along the way. The villains not a dark lord, just a landlord

Astonishing that I have over 1000 liked songs on Spotify and yet their shuffle has somehow decided to play the same song three times today.

Lot of shit going on so far this week, the word count has really suffered. But I broke 70k tonight, and the end is clearly in sight for the first draft. #writing #writingcommunity #fantasy
